Patrick Monkel is the author of the wallpaper featured on this week's Wallpaper of the Week section. His design is a composition blending photos and a few color gradients, producing an outstanding effect. We asked if Patrick could share with us a case study showing how he did that, so, fortunately for us, he was very kind and did that :) In this post we will show you the secret behind Patrick Monkel's wallpaper of ther week.

Today we will show you some great illustrations and a small bio from a Brazilian artist, Thiago Pena. For us it is really a pleasure to show artists from our Country, specially artists with great pieces as the ones you will see here. Thiago's illustrations are really unique. They have a different style, and the lines and shades are great. His drawings are a bit dark, they express a whole parallel atmosphere that get our attention immediately.

One thing I love about design is the variety of things one single designer does nowadays. Everyone is multi-task, and also does lots of cool stuff, like this one designer, Grzegorz Domaradzki. He's work is pretty amazing.

I can't even keep count of how many times I've posted about posters before (haha, that sounds weird…) but I really never get sick of seeing new stuff!

Sorry, folks, here goes another one..

Aled Lewis, also known as fatheed, is a graphic design based in London with some very sharp illustration skills. He has quite a few t-shirts printed at Threadless.com and other tee's sites. I love his style and how funny some of the illustrations are, such as the King Kong, Marion, the one of the fake man on the Moon scene.
